Answer:

The answer is: (a) positive; (b) negative.

Explanation:

The change in enthalpy (ΔH) of a reaction is the amount of energy absorbed or released during a chemical reaction carried out at constant pressure.

a) In an endothermic chemical reaction, heat energy is absorbed by the system from the surrounding. Therefore, the sign of enthalpy change for an endothermic process is positive, ΔH= positive.

b) In an exothermic chemical reaction, heat energy is released by the system into the surrounding. Therefore, the sign of enthalpy change for an exothermic process is negative, ΔH= negative.

Based on the nebular theory of the solar system formation, explain how our solar system is formed.
Alika [10]

the nebular theory states that the solar systems developing <u><em>rotations </em></u>revolve around sun. it is located in the milky-way. revolving around the <u><em>sun</em></u>, with <u><em>gravity</em></u> pulling it, an interstellar cloud of dust and gas, is formed. (i.e. the nebula that we are speaking)

this formation is a<u><em> protostar</em></u>. the idea in the theory states that the <u><em>nebula</em></u> has flattened into a <u><em>disk</em></u> called the "protoplanetary disk"; and over time, the debreis eventually formed this disk. (i.e. creating the milky-way)

hopefully this helped, thank you!! :D
